Lemtrada- apparently the best in UK?

but what is it? (as Cat would say) I noticed US-Emma (I would tag but not sure how! sorry) in a different conversation stated that Lemtrada and one other medication are offered in the Uk for early cases and it's the best available. I am in the UK and have not been offered these, I am due to start Rebif. Am I missing out on a better medication or is Lemtrada for specific cases? Is anyone else on Rebif here?
@Baobab

I've just read the replies to an earlier conversation about Lemtrada, strange that my nurse or neuro never even mentioned it, when she's back from her holiday I may ask about it, in the meantime I hope they finally sort my rebif medication.

@Stumbler

@Baobab , Lemtrada has only just been approved for use in the UK. And, unfortunately, the NHS aren't going to go out of their way to offer a more expensive treatment. But, have a read of this:- http://multiple-sclerosis-research.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/clinicspeak-natalizumab-or-alemtuzumab.html
